Gurgaon court grants bail to 4 men who beat up bikers on Dwarka Expressway
A Gurgaon city court on Wednesday granted bail to the four men from West Delhi who were involved in assaulting a group of motorcyclists near the Dwarka Expressway and damaging a high-end bike in an alleged road rage incident on April 20.
The police arrested the four accused, all residents of Uttam Nagar, on April 22 after a viral video showed the men in an SUV assaulting and hurling abuses at the bikers who were en route to Manesar.
The court granted bail to the accused on furnishing a bond of Rs 1 lakh each and a surety of the same amount.
'They were hurling false accusations against me at the court. They brought more than 35 guys with them to try and intimidate me,' one of the victims, Hardik Sharma, 32, who filed the police complaint, told The Indian Express on Thursday.
Sharma, who had come for the hearing, said that one of the accused's wife alleged that they (bikers) were threatening her after the arrest.
Station House Officer (SHO) Shahid Ahmed of the Sector 37 police station said the police had opposed the bail plea.
The arrested men have been identified as Bhanu Sharma, 33, a gym owner, Deepak Singh, 24, a gym trainer, Pragya Sharma, 23, who leases out cricket grounds, and Rajat Singh, 24.
Sharma, a software developer with a popular food delivery company, had earlier expressed his dissatisfaction with the police for not providing any updates on the case, since the offences invoked against the accused were all bailable.
Meanwhile, Sharma on Thursday posted on Instagram a story uploaded by one of the accused that showed all four of them partying in a pool with a caption in Hindi that translated to: 'God knows right and wrong. But we did not get into the comment war; whoever is getting too aggressive, come forward and hit on the chest.'
The video of the incident that prompted calls for action against the accused showed one of the bikers apologising to the men and pleading with them to let him go, but to no avail.
Sharma said his expensive bike was destroyed and alleged that it took him 12 hours to get his complaint accepted.

Gaming authority questions TNPL over surrogate ads of betting apps
CHENNAI: The Tamil Nadu Online Gaming Authority (TNOGA) has sought explanation from the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) regarding advertisement of offshore betting apps at its tournament being held in Coimbatore. The TNPL is an eight-team, franchise-based cricket competition organised by the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA) where international and popular IPL cricketers from Tamil Nadu like R Ashwin, Sai Kishore, Shahrukh Khan, and T Natarajan are participating. It is telecast on TV and live-streaming apps. A senior TNOGA official said that they had a meeting with the TNPL Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Prasanna Shankar at their office in MRC Nagar in Chennai on Wednesday (June 11). This was a few days after TNOGA sought an explanation after receiving multiple grievance emails from residents of Tamil Nadu, pointing out that TNPL teams have enlisted multiple betting apps like dafabet, 1xBet, MELBET, Cricadda, Pin-up Cricket and JSK1 as main sponsors. These apps are promoted through surrogate advertising like dafanews, MELBAT, Cricadda news, and JSK1 news, etc. TNIE had recently reported on the wide prevalence of surrogate advertising in TNPL. According to the official, the surrogate advertising of offshore betting apps by TNPL has been found to be 'prima facie objectionable'. The TNOGA official stated that even surrogate advertisement of online betting apps is not allowed as per Section 8 of the TN Prohibition of Online Gaming and Regulation of Online Games Act, which bans the direct or indirect promotion of online gambling. Section 16(2) allows for a punishment of one year prison term or Rs 5 lakh fine for those violating Section 8.

Formula E race: KTR gets fresh ACB summons
Hyderabad: The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB), which is probing the irregularities in the Formula E race, has once again summoned former minister K T Rama Rao. The BRS working president has been asked to appear for an inquiry by 10 am on Monday. Meanwhile, Rao dared Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy to take a lie detector test along with him since names of both figure in ACB cases. Earlier, the investigating agency had served notices on KTR on May 26 asking him to attend the inquiry on May 28. However, the BRS leader sought time as he was on his way to the USA and UK, which the agency obliged. Rao, who had earlier attended the Enforcement Directorate (ED) inquiry, went to depose on January 6 along with his lawyers. However, the inquiry officials did not allow the presence of others following which KTR left. Subsequently, on January 8, he appeared before the investigators, who grilled him for seven hours. The ACB is probing irregularities to the tune of a whopping Rs 55 crore. The agency has named three accused, including KTR (A1), senior IAS officer Arvind Kumar (A2) and former HMDA engineer BLN Reddy as A3. Each has been questioned separately.

Now CBI has submitted a report to the court and we are in a process of retrieving it. But what I want to say today is no matter what happens, don't loose heart and don't loose faith on god or in goodness. Always remember what our Sushant stood for… purity, an unquenchable zeal for life and learning, a heart full of love which believed in treating everyone equally and doing charity. His smile and his eyes had this child like innocence which could stir anyone's heart with overflowing love. That's what our Sushant stood for. That's what we have to stand for,' she wrote.

Everytime we love with all our heart, everytime we have child like innocence towards life, everytime we are inclined to learn more, we are bringing him alive. Never use Bhai's name to spread any negative feeling… he wouldn't like that. He didn't stand for that. Look how many people's heart and mind he touched and influenced…. Let his legacy continue… you be the burning candle that lights up other candles to continue his legacy. Any great person's legacy always grows after he has passed on….. you know why is that? Because the magnetism of their personality sows seeds and influences minds for generations to come….❤️🙏 (sic)," she added.
